Premium hands are now not my favourie hands in online freerolls and cash games. I have lowered my range of playable hands considerably, and strangely I am cashing more often.
I got tired waiting for premium hands to turn up, then getting nothing from the flop.

For me, the premium starting hands are the most profitable in any game !

Very nice premioum hands, but they usually are just one couple and we are waiting to win with this couple! Better chasing something safer!

Be careful playing anything suited that is not with an ace. Also bigger fulls against your lower fulls.

any hand can be premium if you play with the head and the community hands favor you

No hand wins 100% of the time, so premium hands will lose quite often, but to refuse them is to leave a large share of equity in the bank. You can not play them too aggressively and then the losses will be small.

there is not much left before the prize. and I have AA, the opponent went all-in 10 10, I am also a vabank in the end he took everything.
I played for 4 hours. a little bit left until the final.

Premium hands are nice in little stacks and vs morons. in big stacks you often win little pot or loose big.

Premium hands is the same hands as others. You just need to understand, how to play them correctly. Sometimes, if you raise with a good hands and got lots of calls and you see a bad flop, it,s better to fold even AA or KK, if you not sure.
Also want to say that in the freerolls (especially 888 poker freerolls) lots of good hands is not so good as it can seems. Many times i lost with them, sometimes people call with total garbage and get their outs they needed. This is just online poker.

If your bankroll is growing, then all is well. This means that you are doing everything right.

In my humble opinion, I believe that only mediocre and fearful players play only premium hands, whoever does not risk does not win, and premium cards will not always come on the flop, so it is okay to bet on non-premium hands.

Depends on which position you are on the table and which phase you are at the tournament.

It's difficult to make a good profit if we just play too tight, wait for premium hands, so I mostly play based on the different positions, I will try to widen my range if I'm in late positions.

Hello.
If you have good results within 3-5 months, then it means that you have enough experience and skill to significantly increase your range of starting hands.
